I'm off to ottery st mary this afternoon/evening for the annual tar barrels festival. basically it involves a bunch of nutters setting fire to tar soaked barrels and running down the road with them on their shoulders!
Now how am I gonna shoot this?
I've found my old Flashgun which is safe to use on my new camera, it'll do about 10m (so i guess the guide number is about 10@iso100) It does have an auto setting, and will run on 1/16, 1/4 and full power. The cam will either operate in preset mode (iso100, f4, 1/125) or let me choose manual settings, i.e. any shuter speed between 1sec and 1/2000. as to whether or not it'll sync at those speeds I can only guess. btw, the flash also has manual mode.
So any advice?
I've never shot this sort of stuff before and will not have many chances to get it right!
